Comment: I've now heard this story from a few different sources, so it seems likely to be an Urban Legend. I saw this version on a blog:
Friend of a friend of a friend was somehow at a dinner with Sean Connery and his cronies at Gleneagles last weekend. Everyone was getting nicely pickled and chatting about cinematic anecdotes - then someone asks: "what we really want to know, Sean, is who was the best shag you ever had?" He grins, and says: "too many journalists and gobshites here, boys." Fair enough. Everyone gets far more pissed, and just before the revels end, said friend of a friend of a friend gets tapped on shoulder. It is a very pissed Connery, who simply says: "Petula Clark. 1963. Up the arse." And walks away to his waiting car.
I actually heard it that Sean Connery was at the bar waiting for a table at a restaurant, the FOAF walked over and shared a few scotches with Sean Connery, and conversed with him for a while. As Sean was about to leave for his table the FOAF asked him "who was your best shag" and Connery gave a look of disgust and walked over to his table. As luck would have it, the FOAF was seated at a table next to Connery, who continued to scowl and glare at the FOAF throughout the meal. Finally, at the end of his meal, Connery taps the FOAF on the shoulder and whispers to him, "Petula Clark, up the ass, 1967".

I don't work with amateurs. If you need instructions, you'll have to get them elsewhere.

Not only did I walk right into that one, but it took me a minute to understand what I walked into.
Signora, I love you too.
Aptenodytes, no apologies necessary. I would have made the same joke.

Somehow this seemed like an appropriate response.
